Descriptif

This module includes the following courses:

• Fly ash and bottom ash from incineration: Part 1 describes the formation and production of incineration ashes in different types of incinerators. Particular attention is given to the fate of metals during incineration. Part 2 addresses quantities, trends, composition, and properties of incineration ashes. In Part 3, the management, use and valorization of incineration residues is discussed.
• Pyro-gasification chars: Analysis and characterization of chars and their valorization routes. This module is focused on the valorization of biochars as solid biofuel, additive in building sector, adsorbent, catalyst, electrode or supercapacitor, and for soil amendment. The methodology is based on the determination of the characteristics that are requested for each application. In a second time, the valorization ability is deduced from the comparison of biochar properties and targeted properties.
